    Default Re: Can I Get Emancipated with a Disability

    Emancipation is a process that removes certain legal obstacles for minors who are living on their own and self-sufficient to enable them to do the things they need like entering into contracts, etc. It is not a way for a teen who does not like his/her living situation to get out from under the control of his/her parents or guardian. California’s Legal Services for Children has a detailed publication on emancipation that will likely answer most of your basic questions about it. The California courts have a basic how to guide that gives the basic forms and steps in the process. Bottom line though is that you have to be able to support yourself without government assistance to get emancipated.

    You aren't going to be emancipated based on what you've stated. Sorry.
